Study: HIV-positive Practicing Homosexual Men 9000% More Likely to Develop Anal Cancer
Life Site ^ | 04.22.07 | John-Henry Westen

New research has again shown the grave danger of homosexual sex acts to the human body. The grave health risks associated with such dangerous sexual behaviours is one of the prime reasons why society as a whole should oppose homosexual acts, doctors have told LifeSiteNews.com under condition of anonymity.

A study which appears in the February issue of the International Journal of STD & AIDS, has found that "HIV-positive men who have sex with men are up to 90 times more likely than the general population to develop anal cancer."

The study was based on data from 244 patients at the University of California - Los Angeles (UCLA) CARE clinic who had anal cytology screenings (similar to a pap smear) between February 2002 and December 2004. The UCLA authors of the study are: Ross D. Cranston, Steven.D. Hart , Jeffrey A. Gornbein, Sharon L. Hirschowitz, Galen Cortina, and Ardis.A. Moe.

A Canadian doctor who spoke to LifeSiteNews.com (anonymously for fear of reprisal) about the dangers our homosexual sex acts in 2005 stated: "Anal intercourse causes abrasions of the relatively fragile rectal wall, especially in the receptive partner. The penetration of E.coli, always present in the stool, and other bacteria, viruses and parasites penetrate through such lesions into the deeper body tissues. This leads to the suppression of the immune system of such individuals even if there is no exposure to HIV. The immune suppression increases the risk to develop certain cancers, opportunistic infections, to which otherwise one would be resistant, and other health problems including the risk of premature death."

Information on the health risks of gay sex is available from the Gay and Lesbian Medical Association (GLMA). A survey by members of the GLMA released in August 2002 listed the main health problems affecting homosexual men. According to Christopher E. Harris, MD, GLMA President and Vincent M.B. Silenzio, MD, MPH, there are increased health risks for homosexual men.

The most common health problems in homosexual men are:

1. Increased incidence of infectious diseases - HIV/AIDS* - syphilis - gonorrhea - chlamydia - pubic lice - hepatitis A - hepatitis B - hepatitis C - anal papilloma

2. Increased incidence of cancer especially - colon/rectal - prostate - testicular

3. Increased incidence of eating disorders - bulimia - anorexia nervosa - obesity

4. Increased incidences of other psychological problems - anxiety - depression - suicide

5. Increased incidence of addiction problems especially - tobacco - alcohol - street drugs - amyl nitrates (poppers)

The anus was designed for exit not entrance. When you fool with GOD’s design, you suffer the consequences.

This kind of begs the question...WHY ARE HIV-POSITIVE MEN HAVING SEX WITH ANYONE? I guess knowingly transmitting a fatal disease is just part of the “lifestyle.”

Well our health care dollars have to go somewhere. NIH funds have to be spent curing something so why not ride with the rump rangers?

Never mind my wife of 35 years has an inoperable brain tumor and we see fewer federal dollars investigating that.

What a peculiar merry go round this is. I would laugh, but I just sometimes cannot thru the tears.

"WHY ARE HIV-POSITIVE MEN HAVING SEX WITH ANYONE?"

Because they are deviants and are in high demand by bug chasers.

It’s just a positive healthy alternative lifestyle...NOT!!!! Things the queer lobby does not want you to know, and you will never find out in the queer-infested MSM. And, yeah, why ARE they still fudge-packing if they have HIV???

And guess what? You are all PAYING out of pocket to support this. How?

Social Security Disability Insurance, Supplemental Security Income, Medicare, Medicaid, and (eventually) Hillary-care. This conduct is being directly subsidized by tax dollars. Hedonism, when not supported externally at the monetary expense of others, is transient. It is self-correcting. It is self-limiting. The nanny-state is precisely why this is flourishing. Be careful not to do more harm with an open hand than you would do with a closed fist.

Get the government out of healthcare and bring back personal responsibility - stop shielding people from the consequences of their conduct and watch as that conduct changes. Take a tiny fraction of the savings to invest in snow plows to clean out the gutters for those that are slow to learn.

Anyone mentally unstable enough to willfully transmit a fatal disease needs to be put down like a rabid animal. People who "chase" a fatal disease should be institutionalized for their own good and the good of society.

This is dumb.

There are only 4,600 cases annually according to the Mayo clinic.

How do you have a 90x increase in a sample of only 244 people with any statistical relevance at all?

you don’t believe in the abortion breast cancer link, so why would you believe in this article with a homosexual anal cancer link. The journal article is posted at post 18

"you don’t believe in the abortion breast cancer link"

Well that's because there is none.

"The journal article is posted at post 18"

And if you bother to read the actual abstract you will see that the author of the article left out a very critical piece of information.

The article specifically fails to mention that the 244 patients were "Patients with abnormal anal cytology".

Thats like expressing surprise that women with lumps in their breasts have a higher rate of breast cancer.

Was the author unable to grasp the importance of that fact or was he being deliberately misleading?
